    have you seen prices lately, they could afford to sell it cheaper to us before, then they still could, they choose not too

    This is the actual truth. I did a report on the top 50 hospitals in the US as of January of this year and the total employee losses due to vaccination mandates were over 10,000.
    So I am guessing on the balance but I can guarantee its more than you think. I was shocked. The information was made public by the AMA on facility losses to include shutting down wards because of staff shortages.

    These are the people who were on the front lines when no vaccine existed, most already had Covid and know that have better immunity than the shot. And this administration is responsible for this. Thousands upon thousands losing their jobs over a vaccine that doesn't stop you from getting Covid, does keep you from spreading Covid, and doesn't guarantee anything other than if you develop a side effect, nobody is responsible.

    I don't care about Trump any more than I do about Biden. I care about the BS this government is selling.

    Trump is part of this, you're deflecting once again to remove any blame from him is noted

    what Trump did in the past can effect the present... you know that right

    Because paying a tiny bit more in 2020 is NOT what is happening now.

    So yea, you can quit being dishonest whenever you want. The situations are not comparable and you know it.....hence you are being dishonest all in the name of politics. But that's what lefties do..... politics above all else.

    Trump threatened them to reduce supply durign covid, now demand is increasing and supply has not caught up

    had Trump left it alone, we would have had even cheaper gas during covid, and it would just be back to normal prices now

    Reducing supply of oil overseas then, has an effect now

    it's all about supply and demand

    that is just a fact ... a fact you don't seem to like being reminded of

    high oil prices are not just effecting America, it's effecting the world, what got us here, think bigger

    The gas price increases with no end in sight, followed by the cascading price increases, and shortages on everything else just may wake up the low information voters. For them all of this green agenda [stuff], and this is going to be free and that is going to be free has just been an abstraction. Now for the Biden voters, chickens are coming home to roost.

    sadly I agree with you, cause you are right about that

    that only works when both parties put the country above politics, we are way way too divided for that to happen

    This inflation was already set to happen when the world powers started pumping trillions of dollars into the money supply in 2020. If Trump were President, we would still be seeing high inflation rates. The dice had been cast.

    You didn't even have to post really I already know your opinion, everything is the fault of conservatives and Biden is responsible for nothing and nor is his administration....

    So you mean making irrational claims intended to incite fear. Typical right wing nonsense.

    At least you all stopped laughing about Russia. Are you convinced trump's hero putin is a war criminal yet?

    Bidens new boogie man. Now of course anyone paying attention and remembers just few weeks back know this is hogwash.

    But Brandon's key demos (low acuity, low info) will eat it right up.

    Pathetic.

    It is big government that caused the problem to begin with
    what big government needs to do is get the hell out of the way

    Wrong
    pumping money into the economy doesn't cause runaway inflation unless you don't provide the wealth to back it up

    I'm sorry if that hurt your feelings but it's not actually an insult.

    I remember you told me this same thing yesterday and about 2 minutes later I looked at another thread and you were discussing other posters. So I'm not going to see that tonight too right?

    And I gave you my opinion it's not my fault that you ignored it.

    And I was discussing your opinion, not you.

    You are not your opinion are you?

    You thought a trucker telling you what it cost him to fill his truck is an irrational claim? Or how its going to effect the cost of what he hauls?
    Typical blindness from the left

    More fake deflections that have no value

    Where does this cheap foreign oil come from and what does it cost?
    You keep running from the question

    Very True .. how we managed to avoid inflation - despite the massive increase in debt since 2008 - is because of messing with invisible hand :"quantitative easing" - buying our own debt to keep debt interest rate on our debt low...

    and this is a big elephant in the room -- cause invisible hand looks to be hitting back.. and don'think unrest around the world is not connected.. I can't tell you how - exactly . because its not set in time .. but, historically -- you expect increased civil unrest at this point in the debt cycle .. and you find that such times will coincide .. something will happen .. which you can later link back

    Anyhow - 30 Trillion --- Ave interest rate last time checked was ~ 2.25 .. on 20 Trillion (added the last 10 rather fast) so our interest payments were about 450-500 Billion/year .. now got to be over 600 Billion/year.

    Say ave interest on our debt goes up by 1% .. add 300 Trillion to the kitty .. historical ave is closer to 6% but say we get to 4.25 .. half way .. something that could happen fairly quickly

    Not including th extra debt .. that would be ~1.3 Trillion in annual debt payments. current Federal Revenue is around 3.6 Trillion -

    If the ratio of interest to income hits 30% .. red lights and alarm bells go off at the IMF -- "Ship is taking on water faster than can be bailed out" .. will sink soon if action not taken .. That kind of thing

    36% is where we would be at in such a scenario ..

    Moral of story -- interest rate on our debt can not increase -- or we are hoop de poop...

    Well, I mean that's a pretty good reply if you're going for a totally irrelevant deflection...
